# open XML file
if (!($fp = fopen($file, "r"))) {
die("Cannot open XML data file: $file");
}
# read and parse data
while ($data = fread($fp, 4096)) {
The error handling section checks to see if the XML parser is
not at the end of the XML file when an error occurs. If there is
an error and we're not at the end of the file, then we capture
and send the error code and the line where the error occurred to
the browser:
# error handling
if (!xml_parse($xmlParser, $data, feof($fp))) {
die(sprintf("XML error: %s at line %d",
xml_error_string(xml_get_error_code($xmlParser)),
xml_get_current_line_number($xmlParser)));
xml_parser_free($xmlParser);
}
}
# free up the parser
xml_parser_free($xmlParser);
?>
</table>
</body>
</html>
There are a total of five error messages that can be captured.
For more information, refer to:
http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.xml-parse.php.
xml_parse() has three parameters – the name of the parser
($xmlParser), the data to check ($data), and an optional
parameter to indicate that the last piece of data is being sent
in this chuck of data. If this optional parameter is set and
true then this is the last piece of data. If it is set and false
then this isn't the last piece of data.
The feof() function checks to see if the pointer is at the end
of the file or if there is an error. If it is at the end of the
file or there is an error, then it returns true. If it isn't or
there's no error, then it returns false. It is a good practice
to validate the generated HTML and make sure there are no
errors. Performing this validation is a good way to debug the
code if you're having problems.
